Summary "A Boy Crusoe; or, The Golden Treasure of the Virgin Islands" by Allan Eric is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. This adventure story follows the journey of a young boy who yearns for exploration and finds himself shipwrecked on a tropical island, where he is tasked with surviving alone. The narrative captures his trials and his earnest attempts to adapt to the challenges of island life while discovering its hidden treasures. The opening portion of the story begins with the protagonist reminiscing about his early life in Maine before he embarks on a sea voyage with Mr. Sargent, a wealthy merchant. The excitement of travel soon turns to peril as the ship is caught in a storm and ultimately sinks, leaving him washed ashore on an uninhabited island. Alone and dazed, he begins to explore his surroundings, detailing the lush tropical vegetation, the initial feelings of despair, and the first steps he takes toward survival. Through his observations, he finds sustenance in coconuts and oranges while contemplating his future in this strange new world, setting the stage for his transformative journey as a castaway.
